1977 Phillies 5 9 0
1917 White Sox 14 18 2 F
The 1977 Phillies' bullpen has been pretty solid all season, so there was definitely reason to believe they could wrap things up with a 5-3 lead, following the seventh-inning stretch. Ron Reed pitched a 1-2-3 inning in the bottom of the 6th, Phillies stick with him in the 7th, in which he got the first two batters, then the Sox starting raking in the hits -- 3 runs off of Reed in that inning. The Phils wanting to keep McGraw & Garber out until later, decide to keep Reed out there, which ended up being a mistake (Reed would allow 3 more runners to score); Garber could not do better, and would allow 5 more runs that inning, as the White Sox fell a run shy of tying the 1914 Boston Braves' record of 9 runs in a single inning.
The White Sox scored 11 of their 14 runs in the 7th & 8th innings combined. Eddie Collins & Happy Felsch would each hammer out four hits.
Chick Gandil keeps defying the odds with his surprise season & doesn't show any signs of slowing down. In real life, he batted .273, 0 HR & 57 RBI (.631 OPS) through a full season of 553 AB's; in the Crazy 48's, he's batting .400, 0 HR & leads the team with 20 RBI through 19 games (70 AB's) with a .887 OPS! All from the 6th spot in the lineup.

WP- Bo.Johnson (2-3)
LP- Ro.Davis (3-1)
Roosevelt finally pitched more like an APBA Grade D pitcher, as he got rocked for 8 runs in 4 innings. The Crawfords kept fighting to get back in this one, but at the end of the day -- The Pirates handed the Crawfords their first back-to-back losses of the season. Willie Stargell broke the game open with a Grand Slam to make it 7-2, Richie Hebner had a solo HR earlier in the inning (7-run, 2nd Inning) & a late RBI-triple. The struggling Cool Papa Bell got moved to the 6th spot in the order & hit his first HR of the season (a two-run HR).
